I was being mean and sarcastic... but that's surprising to hear that there is a .01% of catching it lol
whatever that means. i guess you are "valid" since you registered within the month? quit trolling, son.
Nah, I've been here longer than you have, son. Try 2005! I've been banned under all different areas for my posting uniqueness. q
HPV definitively causes cancer in women; it is not proven yet whether it does in men. HPV is an STD. So, in that sense, "cancer" can be catching.
If that were the standard for bbs dialogue, we wouldn't have much left to discuss. The question is a little lazy at best, but not stupid. Wrong place to find the fastest correct answer? Yeah. I just always try to tread carefully around sensitive topics like cancer. I'm sorry for your loss. I also have lost 2 very close members of my family to cancer. Also, sorry for jumping on you.
Thanks for your response. You talk about percentages being astronomically low, but it's still higher than having sex with someone who doesn't have it, right? http://www.nhs.uk/news/2009/10October/Pages/Cancer-can-be-passed-on-in-the-womb.aspx This is a vast topic and I don't think the answer is as cut and dry as the buffoons who patrol what is stupid and what isn't on the internet make it out to be. Googling it you'll find answers like: So it's not asinine to wonder if A leads to B, B could possibly lead back to A. I always tell the kids there's no such thing as a stupid question. Don't let the fear of laughter from the peanut gallery around you deter your curiosity and thirst for knowledge.
I tell them a lifetime of cheeseburgers coupled with living on the internet can lead to high cholesterol levels.
Link? And all kidding aside, did you really think having sex with a person that has had, or has cancer would lead to you catching it? I mean, that is simply silly. And lord knows you have spent an ample amount of time chasitising people on this site for their thoughts etc. And to me, that question is just...well, let's just say that I would bet Von Wafer would know the answer without having to ask...maybe.

You're the same guy who told everyone that it's "simply silly" to think the world was round 600 years ago. And followed it up by camping outside the doors of those who wanted to prove the world could be circumnavigated, making threats to family members and anyone who wanted to discuss the possibility of not being ignorant. A link has already been provided in this thread that shows a genetic permutation has been passed down from mother to child. If the human mind knew everything about cancer, we'd have found a cure by now. Keep in mind, there are plenty of people in their teens and twenties on this board, all of them more aesthetically appealing and cordial than you. They have the right to ask questions about topics they aren't familiar with.
Assuming your post is half serious, it appears the only type of transmittable cancer is cervical cancer. The HPV that causes it that is. If the person you've had sex with had/has cervical cancer, then it's certainly possible to "catch it" (granted, it won't do anything to you though) and then spread it. It's in the minority of all cases, but it's a semi risk.
Ronny is huge male chauvinist pig. Even if this question were real, which I doubt, the question is really... would HE get cancer? I doubt he cared if it went the other way.
As being someone who is a cancer survivor, renal cell carcinoma, my doctor never told me any warnings about sex and cancer. He is an urologist, I take it that he would would have told me.
